Gnosticism and Truth
As Christians, we do not want to be ignorant of deep truths of God. We want to move beyond the elementary things of this world and reach upward to touch transcendent the One. There is only one way to that, and only a few have found it. Nothing beats good old fashioned Bible study. But many people do not want to take that route. For them, bypassing Scripture is the true way to understanding. In this message, Dr. Sproul teaches us about the ancient false teaching of Gnosticism and how it has resurfaced again in our day.
For those interested in learning more about the way Gnostic forms of thought are perpetuated in our society, follow this link to be taken to the boo, => The Gnostic Empire Strikes Back, which Dr. Sproul mentions in this lecture. You may also find this book listed off our => bookshelf.

Gnosticism and Matter
God’s Word tells us about the war between the spirit and the flesh. Should we understand that to mean that there is a dichotomy between the physical world and the spiritual world? What’s the matter with matter? Continuing to look at Gnosticism in this message, Dr. Sproul explains the Gnostic’s erroneous view of the physical world, and the effect that still lingers in the church today.
